Loving these episodes even if there isn't much new (Clarissa + jungle intro kids I guess) and the plot is definitely staying in a comfort zone. Just so satisfying! Gonna miss it when it's gone.

Oh man the Cara scenes have been PAINFUL to watch. I've read the short story it's based on and I don't think I wanted to slap THAT version of her?

thank god I'm not familiar with said band
must... move... image... upthread
the weird dog stealing the dead sunbird was def in the "OK I wonder where this is going" zone
I love Clarissa but that scene did seem to deliberately introduce the "mods becoming a liability" issue
Bobbie is so great, I got nothin to add
all the spaceship/in space shots have been really great this season? like just the cool pan photos of some ship flying somewhere comes across as epic
this crew totally has PTSD up the ass and it's now biting them there, hard
how the hell do we watch these bonus shorts?

Naomi should not be on the Roci in any capacity right now she is like a walking poster for PTSD lol poor thing

Leee what Cara scenes r u referring to
― Tracer Hand, Tuesday, 21 December 2021 08:45 (two years ago) link
Without going into specifics because book spoilers but so far it certainly appears that they haven't ruled out filming the final three books at some point in the future

fuck, I forgot the second ep was out already.
gonna try to watch while I work later.

I don't care about the little girl and her brother. I was really hoping the alien creature was going to eat her.

Tracer, Cara is the little girl. (I just realized that the name could be unclear for a show viewer, since it's also the name of a prominent cast member.)

thx for clarifying- i was v confused
― terminators of endearment (VegemiteGrrl), Tuesday, 21 December 2021 16:49 (two years ago) link
haven't read the books -- are those scenes just hail marys that someone will let them continue the series? i'm having a hard time believing that they'll amount to anything useful toward wrapping this season up
― mookieproof, Tuesday, 21 December 2021 16:53 (two years ago) link
Yeah, my partner and I were like, "this is bullshit, tho we can see where it's going..."

We talked about how that was a shit move but also how...well, having an antagonist like Marco is what a show like this demands, in some way...
― we need outrage! we need dicks!! (the table is the table), Saturday, 25 December 2021 15:52 (two years ago) link
I'm confused about how Marcos was able to fire the drive back up and go away, was that some protomolecule trick?
― chaos goblin line cook (sleeve), Saturday, 25 December 2021 16:01 (two years ago) link
Holden’s move didn’t make sense even for his noble fair play ethic. Probably table has right explanation - can’t kill Marco in E3 of 6.

What’s not to make sense. Didn’t want to kill his girlfriends son.

The little extra scene between the two of them was great.

They're supposed to be exclusive to the mobile apps, I've read.
― Shower Farts (Leee), Saturday, 25 December 2021 19:53 (two years ago) link
No, I watch on a laptop and they're in the left-hand sidebar along with headshots of the cast members, trivia, etc. You just have to mouse over the left side of the screen and the link pops up.

dan otm. holden’s decision is a mirror image of marco’s frankly psychotic choice to once again attempt to get his son to repudiate naomi but this time by ordering him to actually pull the trigger that will kill his own mother“no coercive methods” - o rly avasarala?excellent value canteen chat between amos and bobbie as noted above“whole crew has PTSD” comment upthread otm, holden sounds like tom waits in the first scenepermanent inaros battle-bun nowspace camerawork so great again. the pull back from exploding ceres was amazing. i interpreted those bombs as little “surprises” from the free navy? all part of being “prepared” for the inners? the streams of “bullet” fire or whatever those missile countermeasures are during the battle between the roci and the pallas were fantastic toothe moment inaros’ face shows up on th roci’s screen was kind of a “finally!” momentamos: “did we win?” lolll
― Tracer Hand, Saturday, 25 December 2021 23:35 (two years ago) link
literally no other person ever would have made that choice
i mean dan otm, and i suppose i'd forgotten that we spent five seasons establishing holden as essentially an angel. but he'd better re-assume his full angeldom soon
― mookieproof, Sunday, 26 December 2021 00:09 (two years ago) link
yeah and beyond just demonstrating "holden good / inaros psycho" - as if we needed any more proof of that - it shows how important naomi is to him and by extension how the personal has come to be as important, or more important, than saving the world. this time, this choice, was a personal one but yes it comes at a public price
― Tracer Hand, Sunday, 26 December 2021 00:38 (two years ago) link
inaros also made the choice to pursue a personal goal instead of the smart military move and it's cost him whatever respect his son still had for him
― Tracer Hand, Sunday, 26 December 2021 00:40 (two years ago) link
I like tracer’s analysis of the contrast between Holden and Inaros even though I still think Holden’s decision begs credulity. So on the list of things Holden regrets is going to be all the folks killed by Inaros’s subsequent actions?
― that's not my post, Sunday, 26 December 2021 01:13 (two years ago) link
marco is a classic small guy (without even taking into account any belter physiognomy, which we obviously have not)
― mookieproof, Sunday, 26 December 2021 01:48 (two years ago) link
Holden's entire persona is being the guy who does good things when it would be better if he didn't

Loved this episode, they're just too short though! This is the first season that I didn't binge (discovered the show in the summer, thanks ILX!) - a 40-minute Expanse session every week doesn't quite satisfy like two hours every night.
― Vangelis fleadh (seandalai), Sunday, 26 December 2021 02:02 (two years ago) link
I love that someone on the design team of this show probably thought, "How can we visually demonstrate how annoying and horrible Marco is? ... Let's give him a man-bun!"
